First time building a PC

[jakche]

CPU: Intel i7-4790k or Intel Core i7-6700K
Motherboard: Gigabyte z97 / GA-Z97X-UD3H
SSD: Samsung 250GB 850 EVO Series SSD SATA III
HDD: 2TB Western Digital 7200rpm Black
RAM: Kingston HyperX Beast 16GB 2400MHz (2x8GB) DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 DIMM
GPU: GeForce GTX 1080 ?
PSU: Cooler Master V850
FAN: Cooler Master Nepton 240M
CASE: CoolerMaster Case MasterCase Pro 5

 

This is something I look for.

Can you help me with the choice of the CPU and the GPU it is my first time building a computer and I am not sure what to pick.

 

And any monitor suggestions?

grab a 6700k and a z170 board. you will need DDR4. The asus 1080 is my pick

What is your budget and what resolution will you be playing at? Also, what is your color theme? (2-3 colors)

[The1whokill5]

Intel does ddr4 and the 6700k uses z-170 mobo, so your mono is incompatible. GPU if you can afford it the 1080 is the best out there as of right now. The nzxt s340 is a decent case for the money and Luke just uploaded a vid about $69 cases aswell

You don't need an i7 for gaming.

Monitors are pretty expensive. Ultrawide or 4k?

[GDRRiley]

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/xgp89W there. A I7 will be better for some games and got a cheaper mobo because @I_IHaveNoLife_l went with a way over kill board for a I5.

I'd prefer 21:9 screen cause they are more immersive in gaming than 16:9

Plus windows's resolution scaling at 4K is going to be bad

They are pretty expensive if I can manage to get one sure why not.

Do research to see if it fits you, considering its your personal rig I would go through extensive research with what has been given to you to see if it fits you. 

 

dont get me wrong I trust most the people on here but it's not their PC it's yours make it your own with advice and personal research ??
